The hotel which opens tomorrow, was once a grain silo from the 1920’s, that stored grain from all over South Africa, before heading on boats to Europe.

What was once a heavily industrial building has now been transformed into a waterfront hotel with 360° views of the city. The hotel will also share the building with Zeitz MOCAA (Museum Of Contemporary Art Africa), and is due to open in September 2017.

The concrete and glass building is 11 storeys high (although it stands at 16 storeys because the floor ceiling heights are quite tall), and it’s a boutique property with just 28 rooms, each designed by Liz Biden.

The hotel has a rooftop bar and restaurant that looks out over the city.

Also on the rooftop is the hotel swimming pool.

One of the key features in the design of the hotel are the huge windows. They are made from 56 hand-cut panels of glass and they stand 5 ½ meters (18 foot) high, plus they dome out about 1 meter (3 feet).
